Critters in the Yard



Julie: On Saturday, we had a wild, windy and rainy day.
It is not too easy to see the wind and rain, but you can see
the big puddle!


On Sunday, it was more sunny but much cooler
and very windy!
That did not stop Earl from getting his seeds or 
Mr & Mrs Mallard from coming for seeds.
You have to look closely to see Mrs Mallard as
she is brown in colour. The males are much more
colourful.


This was another Mallard getting some seeds
 at the end of the ramp.
It is always fun to see critters in our yard.


 Sadly it is still too cold to go out.
Mum  is not bothered that I cannot get outside.
I wonder why?

They are beautiful and I think they come in peace.

It is nice to see the critters in your yard. The warm weather will be here before too long, Julie.

I love seeing your critters Julie. The Hoovers are at work HERE and at least it may be you only have Earl to eat it up before the brdies get there.

Julie, how fun is that?? Just think, though--if you got to go out they probably wouldn't have let you take their picture! ;-)

Julie, it's better to stay inside while it's cold and stuff outside. That wet weather is maybe best for those ducks! :)

Hugs to you and Mum!

Mr. and Mrs. Mallard make for some cool yard visitors, Julie. We had the crazy winds here, too, this past weekend, and though dad's only started to check them out he noted some trees down over and across some of the hiking trails he's worked so hard on cutting. We lost power for the better part of Saturday as well, and with the temps in the teens at least we had the toasty fireplace roaring.

I can see the lady duck! What fun Bird TV. I hope it clears up so you can go out soon.
